MIPS: Send SIGILL for R6 branches in `__compute_return_epc_for_insn'
Fix:
* commit 8467ca0122e2 ("MIPS: Emulate the new MIPS R6 branch compact
(BC) instruction"),
* commit 84fef630127a ("MIPS: Emulate the new MIPS R6 BALC
instruction"),
* commit 69b9a2fd05a3 ("MIPS: Emulate the new MIPS R6 BEQZC and JIC
instructions"),
* commit 28d6f93d201d ("MIPS: Emulate the new MIPS R6 BNEZC and JIALC
instructions"),
* commit c893ce38b265 ("MIPS: Emulate the new MIPS R6 BOVC, BEQC and
BEQZALC instructions")
and send SIGILL rather than returning -SIGILL for R6 branch and jump
instructions. Returning -SIGILL is never correct as the API defines
this function's result upon error to be -EFAULT and a signal actually
issued.
